 (EMAILWIRE.COM, December 17, 2011 ) New York, NY -- A lot of medical institutions nowadays especially hospitals are relying on physician assistants to deliver high-level care to patients. Hospitals around the country are turning to trained and licensed physician assistants to care for patients for a number of reasons. Among the factors that contribute to the demand of physician assistants is the anticipated shortage of primary care doctors, increase demand for medical attention to the aging population and reduction in hours that residents can work.
“It’s only been a year a year since I worked as a physician assistant,” said Debby. “However, I have to say that I am loving this job due to the competitive salary and benefits I am getting. I had no idea that physician assistants were in demand nowadays until I read a post at PhysicianAssistantProgram.org. The site underscores that physician assistants are coming into the spotlight and would be increasing until the year 2018.”
The most basic requirement for an individual to qualify for a physician assistant program is a college degree. It is not like other vocational courses that qualify high school graduates. It is a profession that requires someone to be in close contact with patients and licensed physician thus intense education is required. Once a student completes a physician assistant program, he can earn at least a masterÂ’s degree from an accredited program. A physician assistant is in strong demand and this is the kind of profession where someone can command higher salaries.
The American Academy of Physician Assistants said that the average yearly salary of physician assistant is more than $88,000. However, some medical institutions offer more since the supply does not meet the demand.
“When I completed my physician assistant program, I was so thrilled that numerous medical institutions were offering me jobs in their facility,” said Debby. “I had no idea that this was how badly medical facilities needed physician assistants so I researched about it online. I was so thankful that PhysicianAssistantProgram.org provided me with all the information I needed and still need.”
